Highlights
Escape the city and discover the breathtaking beauty of the Dolomites on this full-day sightseeing adventure that begins and ends in Venice. Accompanied by a professional, English-speaking driver native to the region, you’ll journey through a landscape of alpine splendor, dotted with turquoise lakes, majestic peaks, and charming villages.
Your tour begins with views over the Prosecco region, a glance at the Longarone Dam, and a cultural stop at Pieve di Cadore, birthplace of the Renaissance master Tiziano Vecellio (Titian). From there, explore the serene waters of Lake Auronzo and Lake Misurina, then ascend to the legendary Tre Cime di Lavaredo (open seasonally, late May–October), offering stunning panoramas of the surrounding peaks.
Continue to Lake Landro and Lake Dobbiaco, before reaching the crown jewel—Lake Braies—where you can enjoy a peaceful walk or opt for a row boat ride (summer only). Choose to dine at a local farm or a lakeside restaurant for an authentic taste of mountain cuisine (lunch at extra cost).
The tour concludes with a short visit to the chic alpine town of Cortina d’Ampezzo, then a scenic return to Venice via the Cadore Valley.
